| This is not the shot that got the biggest response from visitors to my blog, but of all the thousands of pictures I took last year, I think this one of a Galapagos hawk is my absolute fave—maybe because it's a special souvenir of a once-in-a-lifetime trip, maybe because this bird let me get up close and personal. I did zoom in a little bit here, but was still standing close enough to touch him when I snapped this picture! [To see more of the Thursday Photo Challenge, visit Dale's meme.] |

Nice, this is awesome!
Fantastic! Beautiful close-up. I love all the detail.
That this image of a fiercely peaceful creature—a hawk with the temporary demeanor of a dove—does so much more than evoke memories of other fierce norovirus creatures of the time says a lot about how much it means to you.
TG -- So true—in the absence of an ER, this bird was the best "medicine" I could have had. :~}
Mind over matter or bird over splatter?
